Top 4 Post-Summer Treatments to Repair Skin Damage

Summer never seems to last as long as we want it to. After all the outdoor fun you’ve had in the sun, it’s time to take stock of the toll of summer on your skin. The end of summer is also an excellent opportunity to take advantage of restorative skin treatments available at your local medical skincare clinic.

At Everglow Medical Spa, we care about the health and quality of your skin. We’re here for individuals who have noticed more dark spots, rough patches, more prominent lines, and acne breakouts than when summer began. Here are the top four post-summer treatments we recommend for repairing the sun damage and restoring your natural glow.

Dermaplaning

If you’re considering microdermabrasion or exfoliation, take your skin repair to the next level with dermaplaning in your area. A deeper version of exfoliation, dermaplaning improves skin texture and evens out tone, making dark spots look less visible. Furthermore, your renewed skin will absorb skincare products like moisturizers and serums more effectively.

During a session lasting 70-90 minutes, your Everglow specialist uses a sterile scalpel to gently scrape away dead skin cells, resulting in a smoother appearance. The process even removes “peach fuzz,” so you won’t have to deal with the pain of waxing.

HydroFacial

Another non-invasive skin treatment available at your Cincinnati medical spa is the HydroFacial. During your appointment at Everglow Medical Spa, which lasts up to 90 minutes, a skincare professional uses a dual-function tool to provide hydration and deep cleansing. In addition to lifting and tightening the skin using the radiofrequency setting, the tool also infuses a customized blend of serums with ultrasound to help them blend more effectively into the skin.

Unlike hydrafacial treatments you may receive elsewhere, your HydroFacial session at Everglow is specifically designed to address your unique needs and concerns, particularly in areas affected by sun damage. It’s also not as messy as other facial treatments, and you won’t have to worry about excess water and product running down your face during the session.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

If you’ve incurred more severe sun damage, such as hyperpigmentation, the appearance of fine lines, or rough patches, traditional therapies like chemical peels and dermabrasion may not be sufficient. Instead, you’ll benefit more from targeted laser treatments that can address specific problem areas and provide long-lasting results.

With laser skin resurfacing, your provider has more control and can treat your skin with more precision. If skin pigmentation is a concern, intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy can target specific pigment clusters and break them up. For areas of rough skin, laser resurfacing smooths the texture, resulting in a smoother surface.

Microneedling with Microinfusion

Microneedling is another effective way to treat fine lines and hyperpigmentation that often result from sun exposure. This method uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries that boost collagen production, helping the skin heal naturally.

At Everglow Medical Spa, we use an advanced microneedling tool to target damaged areas, renewing your skin’s appearance. During the procedure, your provider injects a mixture that may include Neurotoxins, peptides, or other cocktails, formulated to penetrate the middle layers of the skin and address your specific issues. In contrast, traditional microneedling only penetrates the superficial layer and may omit the microinfusion of skincare products.

Personalized Care for Sun-Damaged Skin in Cincinnati

The best way to treat sun damage is to prevent it with adequate sunscreen, proper skincare, and other ways to protect from exposure. However, no one is perfect, and when the signs of damage begin to surface, you can take steps to remedy the harm to your skin and restore its natural beauty. At Everglow Medical Spa, we’re committed to helping you look healthy and vibrant throughout the year. We can develop a personalized treatment plan designed for your preferences, medical history, and goals. Contact us today and learn more about our skin-renewing solutions.
